Warming up is crucial because the discomfort felt during first 10-20 minutes of a workout isn't true physical discomfort. Its mostly mental/emotional. Its your brain trying to pull you back into a comfortable state. Best to get that out the way in the warm up and not the first 50 of 500 burpees. Haha
@farorin ain't that crazy. Lol. Even with a thorough warm up the first ones are the hardest. I find its mostly because my flexibility increases after 10-15 minutes. Even a good warm up is still just a warm up, finding your groove in a workout such as these is much like an athlete in a sport.
I follow that principal with the 2000m row. I make sure the warm involves 10 mins at medium pace with the last 500m at race pace. And that 500m makes all the difference because it tells the CNS " this is the standard we're going for and you've already got over a big hurdle" because most people start to lose their pace after the first 500m. It seems like overkill but it works and is a good example of the importance of the warm up. I've gone from 07.29 to 06.42 over a period of 7 months due to this and better breathing techniques.
I noticed this on my runs, i would remember hitting this kind of emotional wall and 5 minutes more of running and it would be gone and i would feel great
@@adjithwk257 there is a very big difference between what our bodies can do and what they will do. Iron Wolf has an advantage... why is he training? At the root because he is a U.S. Marine that might one day need to fight for survival. So he is fighting terrorism and what not while many of us our fighting belly fat. Which evokes more discipline? Depends on the point of view.
Key Notes: 1) Never forget to Warm Up and do it Properly 2) Have a Proper cooldown 3) Never forget to hydrate the night before, present, and future. 4) Control your Volume 5) Train your mind and body to work together . Your body will adjust to what your mind tells it. * joints and ligaments takes longer to adapt to high volume workout.
Please don't ever stop working out, you never know what is going to happen next day, I was finally able to do Wolf's workout but now I'm injured pretty badly, don't know how much time it's going to take me to get back to normal! Don't ever stop working out, take care of your body!!!
@@ikrampicaso920 yes i start also to mix normal pushups 15-20 and go into knuckle 15-20.. this helps me lots and also trying to find soft surface for burpees always
Man this is exactly what I was like back when I first started out would barely warm up . Just wanted to jump straight into the workout , but I quickly learned that's a recipe for disaster joints were stiff all over for days on end . Always warm up first and cool down after = longevity. I've gradually built myself up through out the months by going through the different levels . I'm at advanced stage now but it's taking me a lot of time to get to this level of reps. Whoever is reading this especially if your new to this godsend of a channel , please listen to every single word iron wolf says it will save you a lot of time and you will progress a lot safer. If your starting out do only low reps , you can build up to the high reps in due time . Trust me I was that guy who was trying to do the high reps starting out a big no no. I'm here since July and it's only the last 2 months I'm doing high reps workouts. This man is knowledge. Listen. You won't regret it. Take care everyone be safe.
Concur....when I found this channel the fundamentals Art is talking about are essential. I too jumped right in & push very hard ...& the body at times didn't response well ...now with a warm up & after stretching...is a big time difference...salut Wolf Pack!
If you train, eat and rest smart you barely have to train at all. I used to do 6 days a week with almost no results. Now I do a few pullups & pushups a week and am almost scared I'll get to bulky. People have so many deficiencies and excesses in their diets and no clue about how it's holding them back. Eat your spinach or lose ;-)
I’ll never get tired of saying this, thanks again. You’re a big help. Injuries unfortunately play a part in the fitness journey, case in point, my hip flexor strain. Cant do burpees so I’m training everything else until I can. Ups and downs. Lefts and rights. Zigs and zags.
I definitely agreed with everything said here. But I would definitely add the fact me being a bigger dude that learning how to properly control your breathing and just how to breathe period has helped me soooooo much.... Thank you bro...
Thank you so much Wolf. I have been into working out for the past ten years but I never found anything that really resonated with me until I found your channel. I am a firefighter in the UK and your workouts have given me so much more cardio endurance when I am at incidents. Cheers mate
Your advices on warming-up & stretching are so true. Those who engage in endurance training should really take note. Love ur channel. 0% bullshit, 100% hardwork ! Thx a lot
Few of my friends already asked about channel and how to start high rep calisthenics so now solid pack of knowledge in one video is here👍Thank You for that Art! Salute!
Congrats for your channel, Iron Wolf. I think , specially nowadays, we need straightforward dudes with a sense of integrity and honor like you, Jocko, etc, because it can really be beneficial for a lot of people who get caught up in the too many gimmicks. A very foundational/intentional minimalism. Another point, is your kind of down to earth mentality, Wich is very inclusive. You got a new subscriber, sir. Appreciate your effort. Respect from Portugal !
Iron wolf 🐺 you are the real deal and I like how you here for what we tune in for right away no BS . Keep it up, I already have my friends follow you cause I tell them how crazy hard your workouts are.
Great video. Straight to the point. Every single point a gem. Totally tracks with my experience too. I especially wish I’d paid more attention to warm ups, cool downs and hydration sooner. The high-rep calisthenics game is SO different to your average gym workout. You simply can’t skip this stuff!
Facts wolf. Dam wish I knew that stuff about warming up 😭 bout 5 years ago I would walk up to bar dam near fresh out of bed and start doing muscle ups 😂 I definitely feel the damage in my joints and shoulders now EVERYTIME I do just even basic dips. Great video 🐺
As always coming from you Art, you're words are gold and money in the bank. Best fitness channel. Getting very close to 90,000. Thanks Art. Salute. Respect.
I just started doing burpees from watching this channel. Couldn’t do them right until you suggested the “6” count. Went from doing 30 to now up to 70. Striving more and more . It’s an addicting workout once you get the technique down. Thanks Iron Wolf!💯💯💯
Thank you, devil dog! Im at 150 burpees a day 5 sets. Im just going to maintain this for a couple of months untill its apart of me for life! Semper fi 💯
Those are actual tips a compelet beginner can work with. No Bullshit, No fancy supplement commercial, No advertising for expensive equiptment. Just pure information that'll get you going. What I like most isn't what he IS saying, but the new age, fitnesshipster, instagram bullshit he ISN'T saying. Stay Hard my friends!
I started out 6 months ago. Got hooked quickly. Made a lot of progress, but also made the ‘mistake’ (stubborn) of going too fast and sometimes not warming up properly. Developed some tendinitis, thankfully it is almost gone. But take the advice seriously.
Greetings from the Netherlands. My new years resolutions is 100 burpees everyday with some jump rope next to my normal boxing workouts. You inspired me to push myself and i have not skipped a day yet.
thank you very much bro , we do always apreciate your advices and informations , and i will surely take them into account since i am planing to reach the 5oo one pumps burpees step by step to be back to y best level , thank you very much again you are the best , salute to you , salute to the wolf pack
Best advice ever,I was just talking to someone about this,Because they couldn't understand why I would be so soar,after training. I'm going to try to stretch more.
Definitely Truth behind this. I know from experience because I hardly ever warm up. I start alot of times just as you said..and begin to flow better as i keep goin. So definitely need to try to remember to stretch and warmup. Great information brother.👍👍👍💪🤙✌
Happy new year wolf pack and thanks Art for doing what you do. Great video I loved it. Trying to get the volume but the old ligaments in my elbow is not liking it. Cheers man , I have decreased my vol but not my efforts and having a day off here and there to get the body right.
Basic but solid and crucial advice. This proves again that if you're confused about all the different and sometimes difficult advice out there, go back to basics!
Thbak you for those advise that are easy to skip or forget in our daily life with work family lack of time and so on Preventing and avoid injuries are one of the most important part of training
Iron Wolf, thanks so much for your free training program💯! I have had unbelievable results since becoming part of the wolfpack- down over 20lbs! Salute from Canada 🇨🇦
Words to live by. When I started doing serious warm ups and a solid cool down, my injuries stopped overnight. I could push myself harder, and I didn’t wake up the next day feeling like I’d been hit by a freight train. And water.... YES. I ditched soda and went strictly to water and it totally changed my life. When going through hard workout regimes I drink about a gallon a day, and I feel like a new man 👌
Great video wolf I am 6 foot five so my joints and ligaments tend to bother me this is all really good information and I definitely don’t drink enough water having a fast metabolism it’s better to be shorter
Would be nice to have a full video of you doing warmup + workout + strech. I know you have them separately, but would be nice to see how it looks for a full session
It is a great video for everybody who is training together with Wolf .Very good and clear explanation with smart advice's.I keep watching this video many tomes because all information is very helpful

This helps, thanks!
Just did this. I’m 51 and did 100 burpees in 8:21. First time in my life I did this due to these instructions. Phenomenal intel
just got done doing 550 burpees, 1 hour 26 minutes. Wolfpack all day everyday

Wrist problem is common for many people doing burpees

I really recommend it to all of you.
That’s perfect
Good idea😊❤

Totally agree - I’ve been doing the iron wolf warm up and cool downs before and after every workout and at 52 years old I’ve been injury and ache free
lose and limber! movement and longevity is key! Salute

As someone just starting, this is gold dust. Thank you.
Properly warming up was a game changer for me. Body feels way better and stronger when I start the actual workout.
A proper warm-up is absolute key. Agree 100%
